2.Yesterday, I met a delightful woman at a work event. As we talked, she talked about her childhood in Manila, Philippines. She spoke about the way her culture values their elders, and she explained that children are educated from the time of birth to honor and respect people older than themselves.
It was refreshing to hear that, and I enjoyed listening and learning. Here is the memory she shared that I found so beautiful:
When she was growing up, her father had three jobs to take care of his family. She said her dad never complained, and though he worked very hard, he always had time for them. One day, her father was injured at his full-time job. For several months, he was mailed temporary (暂时的) disability checks while he recovered.
When her father was able to return to his full-time job, he took all those disability checks that were sent to him while he was recovering and handed them back to the company. He told them that he had good legs and arms, and did not need this money. He told them to give the money to people who could not work, to people who really needed it.
The woman telling the story was a little girl at that time. She had accompanied(陪伴) her father that very day when he went back to his company with all those unopened checks.
“My father is my hero,” she said. Lowering her voice, she said she would never forget what he did, and what an inspiration and influential mentor (良师益友) he was on how to live life. From my communication with her, it was very obvious that her father’s same sweet spirit had been passed down to this woman, and to her family.
Hearing this story was so refreshing to my soul. I hope it is the same to you too.

D.wants to ask us to value our family
3.There are many interesting science experiments out there for young kids. You can surprise your friends and teachers with them. All you have to do is to put a little effort into it and you should have no problem coming up with an interesting science experiment. One such experiment is to show your friends and teachers that you can make mothballs (樟脑丸) dance!
If you want to do it, first, be sure that you have got all the necessary science kits for your science experiment.
What you need for this experiment is a glass filled half full with water. Add a little bit of vinegar to your glass of water, about 1/3 or 1/4 of a cup (60 ml), and one teaspoon (10 ml) of baking soda, and then carefully stir the mixture. Drop a few mothballs into the glass and have your audience watch. As long as the surfaces of the mothballs become fairly rough, they should begin to bounce up and down in the glass.
You can also do a similar experiment with raisins (葡萄干) and clear pop, such as Sprite. In this experiment, all you have to do is to fill a glass with Sprite and drop a few raisins into it. The raisins should begin to bounce up and down in the glass of Sprite. You can also replace the raisins with mothballs and you should get the same effect in the Sprite. This project works because the irregular surfaces of the mothballs and the raisins hold some CO2?bubbles (气泡) ,causing them to bounce up and down in a dancing motion.

B.encourage people to spend more time on science

4.Everyone who has eaten instant noodles knows that it抯 very easy to cook them quickly. However, have you ever heard of the danger of eating them?
When taking out the noodles from the packaging, you will notice that they are joined together nicely as a piece. Do you know that it needs some form of wax coating (蜡涂层) to make them joined together nicely? Many people don’t really care much about it because this seems very normal. However, studies have shown that the wax coating is bad for our body.
It is advisable to have a break of 2-3 days before we start to eat another packet of instant noodles because our body needs about 3 days to clear that wax coating away. Do you know the danger of having too much wax coating in our stomach? It will lead to cancer if it is in our body for so long.
Luckily, there is a way of reducing the danger before we eat instant noodles. First, wash the noodles with warm water, stir (搅拌) them and pour away the water containing the wax coating. Then repeat the first step and try to stir them again to wash away the wax coating on the noodles before cooking them. The shop vendors (供应商) will often wash away the dangerous wax coating.
It is very easy to cook instant noodles but we must pay attention to the wax coating if we eat too much. Imagine having too much of it in your stomach. Oh, my! Hope this article will help more people know about the hidden danger!
1.What should you do before eating instant noodles according to the writer?
A.Stir the noodles twice in really cold water.
B.Stop the noodles from joining together.
C.Wash away the wax coating on the noodles.
D.Drink large amounts of warm or hot water.

A.Healthy. B.Dangerous. C.Happy. D.Angry.
3.What does the underlined word 搃t in the last paragraph refer to?
A.The instant noodle. B.The hidden danger.
C.The attention. D.The wax coating.
4.The author writes this text mainly to _____ .
A.introduce delicious instant noodles to people.
B.tell people the danger of eating wax coating.
C.help us to know the good part of wax coating.
D.share with us a safer way to eat instant noodles.

2.主旨题。根据文章最后一段最后一句 IOW Tourism welcomes you! 可知,IOW 旅游欢迎您!文章的目的是为了吸引更多的人去游玩。故C项正确。A项,“展示 IOW 的旅游业的增长情况”,文中并未提及。故A项错误。B项,“建议读者们假期去放松”。文章的主体是在 IOW 上的,因此B项偏离了主题。故B项错误。D项,“告诉读者什么是值得参观的”。文章仅仅介绍了不同地方各自的特点,但是并没有明确说出哪一个是值得参观的,哪一个是不值得参观的。故D项错误。故正确答案为C。
3.推断题。根据文章最后一段第一、二句 With all of these choices, what are you waiting for? IOW Tourism welcomes you! 可知,文章的目的是吸引游客游玩,文章应该是广告宣传、旅游性质的。travel magazine 意为“旅游杂志”,故A项正确。science journal 意为“科技日刊”,book review 意为“书评”,film advertisement 意为“电影广告”,均不符合文意。故正确答案为A。

3.词义猜测题。根据such as Sprite以及"...hold some CO,bubbles…"可知,pop在这里是指含有二氧化碳的饮料。
4.细节理解题。根据文章的最后一句"This project works because the irregular surfaces of the mothballs and the raisins hold some CO2?bubbles (气泡) ,causing them to bounce up and down in a dancing motion."我们可以知道樟脑丸为什么会上下跳动。
4.答案:1.C; 2.B; 3.D; 4.B
解析:1.推理判断题。根据文章第二段第二、三、四句 Do you know that it needs some form of wax coating (蜡涂层) to make them joined together nicely? Many people don't really care much about it because this seems very normal. However, studies have shown that the wax coating is bad for our body. 可知,你知道吗,它需要某种形式的蜡涂层使它们很好地结合在一起?很多人其实不太在意,因为这看起来很正常。然而,研究表明蜡涂层对我们的身体有害。因此吃方便面前要把面条上的蜡层洗掉。故C项正确。A项,“在真正的冷水里搅拌面条两次”,B项,“别把面条连在一起”,D项,“喝大量的温水或热水”,均不符合文意。故正确答案为C。
2.推理判断题。根据文章第三段 It is advisable to have a break of 2-3 days before we start to eat another packet of instant noodles because our body needs about 3 days to clear that wax coating away. Do you know the danger of having too much wax coating in our stomach? It will lead to cancer if it is in our body for so long. 可知,在我们开始吃另一包方便面之前,最好休息2-3天,因为我们的身体需要大约3天来清除蜡层。你知道胃里有太多的蜡质涂层的危险吗?如果它在我们体内停留太久就会导致癌症。因此一天吃两包方便面容易导致癌症,即很危险。故B项正确。A项,“健康的”,C项,“快乐的”,D项,“生气的”,均不符合文意。故正确答案为B。

8.答案:
Yesterday I met a young student, came from the USA, in the Palace Museum. It was first time that I had met a foreigner, so I went to greet in English. He told me that he was a college student in China and he liked China very much. I volunteered to show him around to the museum. He was impressed by the Chinese buildings and busy taking all the time. He said he hadn't seen beautiful buildings before. After that, we boating on a lake had good time together. I was very glad to have the chance to improve my English.
解析:这是一篇记叙文。记叙了作者遇到一位来自美国的年轻学生,并志愿带他参观故宫的经过。
【详解】
1.考查定语从句的连接词。句意:昨天我在故宫遇见一位来自美国的年轻学生。本句为非限定性定语从句修饰上文young student,且先行词在从句中作主语,指人,故应用关系代词who。故that改为who。
2.考查固定句式。句意:这是我第一次遇见外国人,所以我去用英语问候他。固定句式It was the first time that…“第一次……”,故first前添加the。
3.考查人称代词。根据下文He told me that he was a college student可知,应用him。故her改为him。
4.考查非谓语动词。句意:他告诉我他是一个在中国旅游的大学生,他非常喜欢中国。此处是非谓语短语作定语,被修饰词student和travel之间是主动关系,用现在分词,把travel改为travelling/ traveling。
5.考查固定短语。句意:我自愿带他参观博物馆。固定短语show sb around somewhere“带某人参观某地”,故去掉to。
6.考查名词的数。句意:中国的建筑给他留下了深刻的印象,他一直忙着拍照。photo为可数名词,前面没有冠词,故应用复数形式。故photo改为photos。
7.考查固定用法。句意:他说他以前从未见过这么漂亮的建筑。此处修饰名词things,so不能修饰复数名词,故so改为such。
8.考查动词时态。句意:之后,我们去湖上划船,在一起度过了美好的时光。根据上文可知事情发生在yesterday故应用一般过去时,故go改为went。
9.考查连词。根此处表示我们去划船,并且玩的很开心。是顺承关系,不是转折关系,故把but改为and。
10.考查固定短语。句意:我很高兴有机会提高我的英语口语。固定短语spoken English“口语”,故speaking改为spoken。
9.答案:
Last Sunday I visited the exhibition of students'?traditional Chinese paintings held by our school.
It is said that the exhibition will last for a month in the school?art center. Lots of works on show there range from landscape paintings to flower-and-bird paintings. Impressed by the splendid scenery and the vivid civil life the paintings portrayed, I really appreciate the wonderful works by those gifted student painters.
I heartily recommend this exhibition to you. I'm sure it will arouse your interest in Chinese painting and you'll have a deeper understanding of Chinese culture.
